The trio’s latest album is a tortured and manic valentine that ought to be played at maximum volume for its virtues to truly be appreciated. And Exploding Head is a perfect title for this collection of seething, hypnotic and anxiety-inducing jams that are all things tension, distortion, feedback and reverb. Perfect because there is actually a medical condition known as Exploding Head Syndrome and sufferers of which “experience a tremendously loud noise as originating from within his or her own head, usually described as the sound of an explosion, roar, waves crashing against rocks, loud voices or screams, a ringing noise, or the sound of an electrical short circuit (buzzing).This noise usually occurs within an hour or two of falling asleep, but is not necessarily the result of a dream and can happen while awake as well.â€
